The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 5 Who Will Fall First
In the main hall of Guanyin Pavilion, there is a bronze statue of Guanyin more than ten feet high, with Boys of Good Wealth and Dragon Girls standing on both sides, and flowers, fruits, incense candles, butter, and green tea are placed on the altar.

Thirteen sticks of incense are scattered among the exquisite copper-cast incense burner.

After Mu Yun was incensed, he still left the main hall devoutly, followed by Yun Chen, Yun Lin and others.

As soon as they sat down in the side hall, Shui Fu and Shui Rong in blue skirts walked in.

"My servant has seen General Mu."

Mu Yun was surprised: "Why did Mu Shui send you two here?"

These two servant girls are the two most capable people around Mu Shui, and they have never left Mu Shui.

Ever since the two maidservants walked in, Yun Chen and the others looked at them unscrupulously.

The two were in their [-]s and [-]s, and they were pretty and lovely, especially Shui Fu, standing next to Shui Rong who didn't have a single accessory all over her body, she looked extraordinarily dazzling.

Shuifu loves to dress up, and she always changes her hair accessories and face makeup every day. She is the most beautiful maid in the North Palace.

Today, she combed a pair of flat buns, and inserted a small pomegranate flower on each of the two symmetrical buns, and painted an auspicious cloud with yellow powder on her forehead, which made her more delicate than the fresh pomegranate flowers .

Hearing Mu Yun's question, Shui Fu's red lips pouted slightly, showing reluctance all over her body: "General Mu, you also think it's wrong, don't you?
"We are the most capable people around my lady, if you loan us both out at once, won't my lady be exhausted?
"Besides, it's just a little girl guarding the Dizang Pavilion, so there's no need for me and Shui Rong to take action, just send two little girl girls there."

Ever since Shui Fu and Shui Rong came in from outside the hall, Yun Chen's gaze has never left Shui Fu. Hearing her soft voice now, his whole body felt numb.

Shui Rong half reminded and half reprimanded Shui Fu: "This is the lady's order, we must obey."

Shui Fu glared at Shui Rong pretending to be reproachful, and then said to Mu Yun: "General Mu, why don't you tell the lady again that I can borrow someone.

"Shui Rong and I must go back together, otherwise the lady will be too hard."

This time, Shui Rong didn't reprimand Shui Fu, she looked at Mu Yun with anticipation in her eyes, obviously hoping that Mu Yun would only borrow one person.

Mu Yun suddenly laughed, in terms of guessing the master's intentions, those of them who follow the master through life and death are not as good as Mu Shui who came to the master's side later, they are really ashamed.

"Since it's Mu Shui's intention, then you can stay."

"Ah?" Shui Fu called out, very unhappy: "Then how long are we going to stay in the South Palace?"

"After that little girl's injury is healed, you will go back first."

"Great, I thought I couldn't go back to the North Hall." Shui Fu smiled.

The next moment, the smile on Shui Fu's face disappeared again: "Why do you only go back to one? How long will the other one stay with the little girl?"

When the time comes, will she go back, or will Shui Rong go back?
Mu Yun smiled without answering, and told Chi Ye: "Take them down and settle down."

"Yes, General."

Chi Ye walked over: "You two ladies, please follow me."

Shui Fu and Shui Rong bowed to Mu Yun and left with Chi Ye.

"I heard that the Ksitigarbha Pavilion in the South Hall has taken in a lot of evil people. A mixture of dragons and snakes is the most dangerous. Shui Rong, we have to be careful."

"Don't worry, those people are most afraid of death and dare not touch us."

"Yes, we are from the King of Chu"

The woman's voice gradually faded away, Mu Yun walked to the corridor outside the hall, and looked at the endless mountains.

Yunchen and Yunlin looked at each other, then quietly backed away.
-
"Beep beep beep."

what sound?
Cui Hengyue opened her eyes and looked towards the place where the voice came from.

Candlelight?

Wasn't it daytime just now?Why did you light the candles?

Wait, this is not her room.

Cui Hengyue suddenly sat up and looked at the place where she was, the North Catacomb, Auntie's room, why is she here?

"Ah, my head hurts."

Just as Cui Hengyue wanted to search for memories in her mind, her head hurt violently, and she couldn't help curling up into a ball with her head in her arms.

"Yueyue, what's wrong with you?"

Qionghua came in after boiling the medicine, just in time to see this scene, quickly put down the medicine bowl, and ran to the bedside, "Yueyue, do you have a headache?"

"Mmm." Cui Hengyue squeezed out a word from between her teeth.

"Don't think about it, just take a rest first."

Qionghua supported Cui Hengyue to lean on the pillow, brought the medicine again, and fed it to Cui Hengyue mouthful by mouthful.

"It's so bitter, why is the medicine here so unpalatable?" Cui Hengyue took the medicine, and the headache eased a bit, and she complained.

Qionghua put down the medicine bowl, and said strangely: "You used to drink medicine and never complained, what's wrong today?"

"."

Cui Hengyue's expression paused, and his eyes shifted slightly: "Today's medicine is more bitter than before."

"Then eat a candied fruit and press it." Qionghua immediately went to get the candied fruit.

Bringing candied fruit, Qionghua handed the candied fruit to Cui Hengyue's mouth like coaxing a child: "Ah, open your mouth."

Cui Hengyue was speechless, but she still opened her mouth.

She chewed the candied fruit twice, and her eyes lit up immediately.

What kind of candied fruit is this, it's too delicious.

"I want more, ah." Cui Hengyue opened her mouth again.

"You." Qionghua pampered Cui Hengyue's forehead, then went to pick out candied fruit from the jar.

She lowered her head too quickly and missed Cui Hengyue's uncomfortable expression.

"Ah, open your mouth." Seeing Cui Hengyue's mouth closed again, Qionghua coaxed her to open her mouth.

Cui Hengyue's discomfort disappeared instantly as the candied fruit entered the mouth, she swallowed the candied fruit two or three times, and said to Qionghua, "Give me a few more."

Qionghua frowned: "Is today's medicine really so bitter? You usually only eat one candied fruit after drinking medicine."

The most important thing is that Cui Hengyue doesn't like to eat sweets. If the medicine is not very bitter, she will never eat candied fruit, even if she wants to eat, she will only eat one.

Could it be because she jumped off a cliff and died once, and her heart was so bitter that she wanted to eat sweets?

Jump off a cliff?

By the way, how could she forget such an important thing?

"Yueyue, why are you so desperate to commit suicide?"

Qionghua put down the jar of candied fruit, and looked at Cui Hengyue sadly: "The lady let you live well before she died, did you forget the oath you made to the lady so quickly?"

Hearing this, a picture appeared in Cui Hengyue's mind:
The weeping girl knelt on the ground, clutching the young woman who had returned to life tightly with one hand, and raised the other hand, sobbing and swearing: "I, Cui Hengyue, swear to God, listen to Auntie and live well.

"No matter what kind of predicament I encounter in the future, I will definitely survive."

After listening to the girl's oath, the young woman closed her eyes in peace.

Once again feeling the girl's helpless despair and the grief of losing a loved one, Cui Hengyue's tears welled up uncontrollably.

The next moment, Cui Hengyue raised her head and forced back her tears: "I haven't forgotten, and I haven't committed suicide, I just want to"

Cui Hengyue's voice came to an abrupt end when she caught a glimpse of the corner of the blue skirt at the door.

Qionghua opened her mouth to ask more questions, but Cui Hengyue raised her finger to her lips to signal her to keep silent.

The house was silent for a long time.

Shuifu didn't wait for the next words, and stepped into the room.

"who are you?"

Cui Hengyue saw two strange women coming in, and looked at them warily.

Shui Fu stopped a foot away from the bed, crossed her arms, looked down at Cui Hengyue, and sized her up wantonly.

Shui Rong came up from behind and introduced expressionlessly: "My name is Shui Rong, and her name is Shui Fu. We were sent by General Mu Yun to the North Vault to take care of you temporarily."

"wrong."

Shui Fu corrected Shui Rong's words coldly and arrogantly: "We are here to watch you, so you'd better stop committing suicide, or I will tie you up."

Cui Hengyue's heart sank. It seemed that the King of Chu was determined to lock her up in the North Vault.

In the past, she slept in the Datong bunk outside. Although it was crowded and cramped, she could at least see the sun and the moon, and she could go to the North Grotto to see her mother twice a month. Those were the happiest times for her.

but now.
Seeing Cui Hengyue's face, Shui Fu said with contempt in her heart: After all, she is a little girl who has never seen the world, so she will be afraid if she is frightened a few times.

"Remember it for me. When you enter the South Palace, you must abide by the rules of the South Palace. You are not allowed to kill anyone. Anyone who kills must die."

Shui Fu paused for a moment, then added: "It's not okay to commit suicide, it's also murder."

"Ah!"

Cui Hengyue couldn't help sneering: "Why, if someone commits suicide, do you have to execute him according to the murderer's rules? This actually fulfilled his wish.

"It turns out that you who treat outsiders harshly on weekdays are also very kind."

These words were extremely ironic, and immediately enraged Shui Fu, she quickly pulled out her whip, and swung at Cui Hengyue forcefully: "Looking for death!"

"Yue Yue--"

Seeing the whip coming, Qionghua turned pale with fright, and without thinking about it, she rushed forward and hugged Cui Hengyue tightly in her arms.

"Well"

Qionghua clenched her teeth, she didn't want to make a sound to make Cui Hengyue worry, but the sudden pain in her back made her unable to breathe out.

Anyone who dares to touch her?
court death!

Cui Hengyue gently pushed Qionghua away, jumped up, and grabbed the whip before Shui Fu pulled back her hand.

Shui Fu was stunned for a moment, then grabbed the whip and pulled it back, but Cui Hengyue held on tightly, and she couldn't pull it.

The two were in a stalemate for only a moment, when Cui Hengyue, who was opposite, suddenly had a contemptuous smile on his lips.

The next moment, Cui Hengyue let go of her hand, and Shui Fu instantly fell backwards.

"soy Mujer"

Shui Fu turned her body over and was about to stand up with her hands on the ground, but someone kicked her back hard.

She lay face down on the ground, her hands and feet stretched out into a "big" shape.

Immediately afterwards, the whip in her hand was snatched, pain came from her back again, and her body was stepped on the ground.

Damn, this stinky girl not only kicked her, but also dared to beat her with her whip?
Shui Fu was furious, put her hands on the ground, and suddenly tried to stand up, but the restraint on her back suddenly disappeared.

She jumped up and looked back, only to see Cui Hengyue holding her whip and tapping the palm of her left hand repeatedly, with a mocking smile on her lips.

"Smelly girl, do you dare to hit me?" Shui Fu clenched her fists with a cracking sound.

Cui Hengyue raised her chin slightly, scorning everything: "So what if I hit you?"

"Smelly girl, I am from the King of Chu, the reason why you evil people stay in the South Palace is because you have nowhere to go and want to seek the protection of the King of Chu.

"You dare to hit me, do you want to live?"

Shui Fu couldn't figure out where Cui Hengyue got the courage to hit her. From the moment these people voluntarily stayed in the South Hall, they lost their freedom and had to stay in the South Hall for the rest of their lives and abide by the rules of the South Hall.

But they will also be protected by the King of Chu. In the South Palace, no one dares to kill them, because the murderer will be executed by the King of Chu, and the most important thing for those who stay in the South Palace is to live.

No matter if he is a criminal of the imperial court, a bandit or a dignitary, no matter if he is being chased or killed for other unspeakable reasons, as long as he steps into the South Palace and is willing to stay here for the rest of his life, the King of Chu will keep him safe.

For 15 years, Nandian has lived in peace.

"Oh, I forgot, you really don't want to live anymore, otherwise you wouldn't jump off the cliff." Shui Fu suddenly sneered.

Cui Hengyue explained the matter of jumping off the cliff many times, but no one believed her. Now, she doesn't want to explain anymore.

"Snapped!"

Cui Hengyue flicked the whip, and raised an eyebrow at Shui Fu: "What? Want to kill me? Come on, stay with me anytime."

"You" Shui Fu gritted her teeth angrily.

This stinky girl, knowing that the people of the King of Chu are responsible for protecting them, dares to say such a thing, it is shameless.

Shui Rong, who had been silent and unable to intervene, walked to Shui Fu and persuaded in a low voice: "Don't forget our mission."

Before she finished speaking, Shui Fu had clenched her fists and rushed towards Cui Hengyue: "That's right, I can't kill you, but I can beat you to death.

"If you want to die, I will not let you die."

"Shui Fu—" Shui Rong shouted anxiously.

Cui Hengyue raised his whip, and slammed it at Shui Fu: "Speak out loud, let's see who falls down first."

As soon as the last word was uttered, Cui Hengyue's head felt a sharp pain, and then her eyes turned black, her whole body was weak, and the whip dropped from her hand and fell to the ground.

"Oh!"

Cui Hengyue straightened up and fell backwards
